During this simple tutorial we will build a Stateless Session Bean and an Entity Bean using MyEclipse - an Eclipse Plugin-based IDE which is available for a free 30 day trial.

Using MyEclipse will give you the opportunity to discover the most comprehensive Java EE / J2EE IDE for the open source Eclipse platform on the market today. After the 30 day trial, when you subscribe, I'm sure you'll agree it will be the best £15 you ever spent...

We will deploy our application to JBoss 5.0.0 Beta 2 which at the time of writing, was an early release of their up and coming J2EE 5 application server, although their may be a later version available to you.

Data persistence will be provided by the MySQL database server.
